Move on to what? The person you get is usually the best you can do. It's this one, or someone similar, or reconsider a past dealbreaker (wealth, height , gender, age, whatever) or no one.

Lol. Ok yeah. Sex addict, 100+ body counts and alcoholic all in one are just walking around everywhere, like half the population right PP?!

Just the same as someone who has no wealth or is too short or the wrong “gender” or age. Yeah. All the same. Excellent, well-made point PP. Amazing.

Y'all need to learn to center your own agency so that when someone gives you facts you don't like about what they will/won't do in a relationship, you cut your losses and leave instead of wasting your time trying to "figure him out". He said what he said. If it's not for you, it's not for you.

It's. Not. That. Deep.

R u still talking about how he said he is celibate?

Or r u talking about how he was a long term sex addict, alcoholic and has had STD scares?

Which ones you minimizing Pp?

Nothing besides kissing. He has found Christ as he says and decided sex is off the table. He doesn’t want to rush marriage because he doesn’t believe in divorce. He wants to make sure he is 100% compatible with whomever he marries.

100% compatibility includes intimacy and pleasure, even if it doesn’t involve PIV.

He’s testing you to see how controllable you are.

Why is he demanding a 3 year interview until marriage? Are they both teenagers?

His body, his choice.

No, the guy is an absolute creep, and women are just helping OP realize that fact.

What's creepy about him saying no? What's creepy about him clearly and honestly communicating his boundaries, directly to her?

That she doesn't like it doesn't make it creepy. That he understands why he drew that boundary doesn't make it creepy.

What's "creepy" is all y'all acting like all men owe you dick on demand, and it's creepy to want to wait. That's creepy af.

Troll sock puppet op again

Religious baggage
Issues with sex

Nope

Most people don't view religion as "baggage".

As someone raised in a puritanical religion, I had a lot of baggage around sex that I had to work through to have a healthy relationship with my husband.

Most religious people aren't raised in a "puritanical" (whatever that means, nowadays) sect.

- except Islam.

Didn’t someone (the Troll) suggest anal as a way to stay celibate and pure? Is that what’s Mohammed believes? Yet your hands can never wipe your @$$?

He is not gay. He said he used sex a lot as an escape and decided he would celibate until marriage.

wtf OP troll.

What was he escaping from?

How much sex was he previously having, and with whom?

When did this celibacy thing start?

I’m not a troll.

To answer your questions

He said he used sex an escape. When he was happy, bored, or stressed. He slept with a lot of random women. Lots of one night stands and casual sex. He’s cheated. He even slept with married women in the past. He said his body count is 100+. He just did it because it was there.

He had a std scare and that whipped him into shape. Then a family loss. He decided he didn’t want to live his life like that. He decided he wanted to wait for marriage because he made a choice to reserve sex the way god intended. He wants to be in love and do it the right away.

Wut?

No sex at all. We haven’t even seen each other naked. He doesn’t want any kind of sex. Only kissing. Not even touching.

This makes no sense.

And the reason is not religious or respect- based, but because he previously was a sex addict and/or porn addict and wants to avoid going on a bender again.

Yikes and yikes and yikes.

Bro, this isn't "yikes". It's not for you, and it doesn't sound like it's for OP either, but it's not "yikes" to have limits and clearly express them.

Lotta rape culture evident on this thread.

WTF? It’s “rapey” to want to have an intimate, sexual relationship with your partner? You are off.

Who the eff are you to judge?! Y'all need Jesus...

Go to therapy and learn to mind your own business. If a former addict setting better boundaries gets you this het up, that's a you problem.

To want it? No. To demand it from someone who has made it clear they aren't willing to offer it to you? YES.

You can want what you want. If your partner doesn't want it, the solution isn't to shame and blame them until they do.

He admitted to being an addict.

So addicts don't get to have agency? They don't get to draw boundaries around their recovery? If they were an addict, they have to engage their addiction(s) to please you?

Him admitting to be an addict doesn't justify the wackadoodle nonsense most of the posters here keep spouting off about.
